Listen "Alexander Graham Bell and The Telephone"
Episode Synopsis
We are back at it with a discussion on Alexander Graham Bell.
We discuss his life and many of his inventions, but spend a good amount of time discussing the telephone and the societal impact that it had. He was very insightful and even predicted that at some point in the future, we would be able to see the person we were talking to on the phone.
With all of the phone apps of today, things like Long Distance are a distant memory.
(Reach out and Touch someone!)
Things like operators to make the connection for you, tinny sound, and the oohs and ahhs of the novelty of the phone are foreign to most people today.
When the cell phone came around things like free evenings and weekends were a selling point!
Enjoy the podcast!
